Absence Reporting (AESOP)

District No. 118 Current Staff - Absence Reporting

All absence requests
including leaves of absence and business travel will be done through
Aesop for all staff other than custodians and food service employees. If
you are requesting a leave of absence or an absence for business
travel, please fill out the appropriate forms and attach them to your
absence request in AESOP.

All other absences are to be entered
directly into the AESOP system. You will not need to fill out any
paperwork.

Once you have submitted an absence request
that requires an approval, you can track your status in AESOP. It will
show your status as unapproved until the proper administrators have given their approval. The status will then change to approved.
The absence will not be posted for substitutes until it has been
approved. Please have your request in at least 12 days in advance.
To report an absence, please select one of the following procedures:

Save
your completed Travel Request form to your computer in an easily
accessible location, i.e. Desktop, My Documents. You will need to refer
back to this file, as well as keeping a copy for your records.

A Return to Work Capacities Form
is to be completed by a physician for employee to be able to return to
work after employee's injury or illness. *Please note: Return to Work
Capacities Form must be submitted to the HR Director for approval prior to the employee returning to work.
